Definitions
- This invention relates, in general, to bacterial surface proteins. More particularly, the present invention relates to polynucleotides from Aeromonas, particularly Aeromonas hydrophila , which encode a novel recombinant adhesin or a biologically active fragment thereof, or a variant or derivative of these and to expression vectors comprising such polynucleotides operably linked to regulatory nucleic acids. The invention further relates to recombinant adhesin polypeptides, fragments of such polypeptides, as well as variants and derivatives of these. The invention also extends to antibodies to recombinant polypeptides and to the use of the polynucleotide, polypeptides and antibodies of the invention inter alia for diagnostic purposes and for treatment and prevention of infection by Aeromonas species and related bacteria.
- Aeromonas hydrophila is a gram-negative bacterium that infects a wide range of hosts including amphibian, reptilian and avian species as well as mammals such as cows and humans (Popoff, M. Aeromonas. In: Bergy 's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology , N. R. Krieg (ed), Williams & Wilkins, Baltimore, Md., 1984, vol. I, pp. 545-548), but it is most well-known as a pathogen of marine animals such as fish. It causes motile aeromonad septicemia (MAS), which results in great economic losses in freshwater fish farming. Antibiotics are often used for prevention and treatment of MAS (Stevenson, RWM.
- Furunculosis which is an important disease of wild and farmed salmonids throughout the world caused by Aeromonas salmonicida , has been successfully controlled by using a vaccine comprising bacterins and oil-based adjuvants (Midtlyng, P J. “Vaccination against furunculosis.” In: Furunculosis in Fish: A multidisciplinary Review. Bemoth E M, Ellis A E, Midtlyng P J, Oliver G, Smith P (eds), Academic Press, London, 1997, pp 382-404);
- Yersiniosis also called enteric redmouth disease (ERM)
- EEM enteric redmouth disease
- bacterin which provides cross-protection among serogroups of Yersinia ruckeri
- Edwardsiellosis also called enteric septicaemia of catfish (ESC)
- ESC enteric septicaemia of catfish
- Two vaccines have been produced to vaccinate catfish against Edwardsiella ictaluri (Thune, et al., “Immunization with bacterial antigens: Edwardsiellosis.” In: Fish Vaccinology. Gudding R, Lillehaug A, Midtlyng P J, Brown F (eds), Developments in Biological Standardization. Basel, Karger, 1997, vol 90, pp 125-134); and
- Vibriosis is the most economically important disease in marine fish culture caused by several species of Vibrio. Many commercial vaccines have been developed against one or several species of Vibrio (Toranzo, et al., “Immunization with bacterial antigens: Vibrio infections.” In: Fish Vaccinology. Gudding R, Lillehaug A, Midtlyng P J, Brown F (eds), Developments in Biological Standardization. Basel, Karger, 1997, vol 90, pp 93-105).
- the present inventors identified a 43-kDa outer membrane protein as an important adhesin of A. hydrophila strain PPD 134/91 (Lee, et al., 1997, Journal of Fish Diseases 20: 169-175). N-terminal sequence analysis of this protein revealed a 20 residue sequence with substantial homology to the 39-kDa outer membrane protein, Omp II, from A. hydrophila Ah 65 isolated from rainbow trout by Jeanteaur et al. (1992 , Mol. Microbiol. 6: 3355-3363), and to the 40-kDa pore-forming carbohydrate-reactive outer membrane protein (CROMP) isolated from the human isolate A.
- CROMP carbohydrate-reactive outer membrane protein
- hydrophila A6 by Quinn et al. (1994, infection and Immunity 62: 4054-4058). Crude preparations of the A. hydrophila PPD 134/91 adhesin were shown in vitro to cross-inhibit serologically different species of A. hydrophila, Aeromonas sobria or some virulent strains of Vibrio spp. from invading into cpithelioma papillosum of carp (EPC) cells (Fang H M, Ling K C, Tan Y L, Ge R and Sin Y M (1998). “In vitro inhibition of epithelial cell invasion by Aeromonas hydrophila and Vibrio species by fish Aeromonas hydrophila major adhesin” Journal of Fish Diseases. 21, 273-280).
- the present invention arises at least in part from the discovery of full-length nucleotide and polypeptide sequences relating to a 43-kDa adhesin of Aeromonas and more particularly of A. hydrophila .
- the discovery of these sequences thus, allows for the first time the production by recombinant techniques of large quantities of this adhesin and its biologically active fragments as well as variants and derivatives of these. It has also been found that this adhesin can elicit a protective or therapeutic immune response against infection by Aeromonas, Vibrio and Edwardsiella species.

- the vector can contain any means for assuring self-replication.
- the vector can be one which, when introduced into the host cell, is integrated into the genome and replicated together with the chromosome(s) into which it has been integrated.
- a vector system can comprise a single vector or plasmid, two or more vectors or plasmids, which together contain the total DNA to be introduced into the genome of the host cell, or a transposon.

These predictive methods may be based on amino-terminal or carboxyl-terminal sequences as for example described in Chapter 11.14 of Ausubel et al., (1994-1998, supra). Alternatively, these predictive methods may be based on predictions of hydrophilicity as for example described by Kyte and Doolittle (1982 , J. Mol. Biol. 157:105-132) and Hopp and Woods (1983 , Mol.

If a conjugate is formed comprising the compound and the antigen-binding molecule, this is indicative of the compound being a variant of a polypeptide of the invention.
- variants will be at least 75% homologous, more suitably at least 80%, preferably at least 85%, and more preferably at least 90% homologous to a polypeptide as for example shown in SEQ ID NO: 2, 4 or 8.
- the antigen-binding molecule may be utilised in conventional immunoassays.

- a pair of monoclonal antibodies is typically utilised, one bound to the solid support and the other labelled to permit detection.
- the use of monoclonal antibody pairs that recognise different epitopic sites on an antigen makes it possible to conduct simultaneous immunometric assays in which the antigen and labelled antibody incubations do not require the intermediate steps of prior processes.
- solid phase detection of the conjugate may be determined by immunoaffinity chromatography, as for example described by Coligan et al., (supra, in particular Chapter 9.5) and Ausubel et al. (“CURRENT PROTOCOLS IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY”, John Wiley & Sons Inc, 1994-1998, in particular Chapter 10.11), by immunoblotting, as for example described by Ausubel et al. (supra, in Chapter 10.8), or by immunoprecipitation, as for example described by Ausubel et al. (supra, in Chapter 10.16).
- Solution-phase immunoassays are also contemplated by the present invention.
- detection of said conjugate may be carried out in solution using flow cytometric analysis as for example described in Shapiro, H. M. (“PRACTICAL FLOW CYTOMETRY”, 3 rd ed., Wiley-Liss, New York, 1995).
- Polypeptide variants according to the invention can be identified either rationally, or via established methods of mutagenesis (see, for example, Watson, J. D. et al., “MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF THE GENE”, Fourth Edition, Benjamin/Cummings, Menlo Park, Calif., 1987).
- a random mutagenesis approach requires no a priori information about the gene sequence that is to be mutated. This approach has the advantage that it assesses the desirability of a particular mutant based on its function, and thus does not require an understanding of how or why the resultant mutant protein has adopted a particular conformation.
- the random mutation of target gene sequences has been one approach used to obtain mutant proteins having desired characteristics (Leatherbarrow, R.
- Variant peptides or polypeptides may comprise conservative amino acid substitutions.

- a majority of binding sites is known to involve four to six residues.
- Cysteine is preferably excluded from the mixture positions to avoid the formation of disulfides and more difficult-to-define polymers.
- Exemplary methods of producing SPCLs are disclosed by Houghten et al. (1991 , Nature 354: 84-86; 1992 , BioTechniques 13: 412-421), Appel et al. (1992 , Immunomethods 1: 17-23), and Pinilla et al. (1992 , BioTechiniques 13: 901-905; 1993 , Gene 128: 71-76).
- Preparation of combinatorial synthetic peptide libraries may employ either t-butyloxycarbonyl (t-Boc) or 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) chemistries (see Chapter 9.1, of Coligan et al., supra; Stewart and Young, 1984, Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis, 2nd ed. Pierce Chemical Co., Rockford, 111; and Atherton and Sheppard, 1989, Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis: A Practical Approach. IRL Press, Oxford) preferably, but not exclusively, using one of two different approaches. The first of these approaches, suitably termed the “split-process-recombine” or “split synthesis” method, was described first by Furka et al.
- the split synthesis method involves dividing a plurality of solid supports such as polymer beads into n equal fractions representative of the number of available amino acids for each step of the synthesis (e.g., 20 L-amino acids), coupling a single respective amino acid to each polymer bead of a corresponding fraction, and then thoroughly mixing the polymer beads of all the fractions together. This process is repeated for a total of x cycles to produce a stochastic collection of up to N x different compounds.
- the peptide library so produced may be screened for example with a suitably labelled antigen-binding molecule that binds specifically to a polypeptide according to any one of SEQ ID NO: 2, 4 or 8. Upon detection, some of the positive beads are selected for sequencing to identify the active peptide. Such peptide may be subsequently cleaved from the beads, and assayed using the same antigen-binding molecule to identify the most active peptide sequence.
- the second approach the chemical ratio method, prepares mixed peptide resins using a specific ratio of amino acids empirically defined to give equimolar incorporation of each amino acid at each coupling step.
- Each resin bead contains a mixture of peptides.
- Approximate equimolar representation can be confirmed by amino acid analysis (Dooley and Houghten, 1993 , Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 90: 10811-10815; Eichler and Houghten, 1993 , Biochemistry 32: 11035-11041).
- the synthetic peptide library is produced on polyethylene rods, or pins, as a solid support, as for example disclosed by Geysen et al. (1986 , Mol.
- An exemplary peptide library of this type may consist of octapeptides in which the third and fourth position are defined with each of the 20 amino acids, whereas the remaining six positions are present as mixtures.
- This peptide library can be represented by the formula Ac-XXO 1 O 2 XXXX-S 5 , where S 5 is the solid support. Peptide mixtures remain on the pins when assayed against a soluble receptor molecule.
- the peptide library of Geysen (1986 , Immun. Today 6: 364-369; and Geysen et al., Ibid) comprising for example dipeptides, is first screened for the ability to bind to a target molecule.
- the most active dipeptides are then selected for an additional round of testing comprising linking, to the starting dipeptide, an additional residue (or by internally modifying the components of the original starting dipeptide) and then screening this set of candidates for the desired activity. This process is reiterated until the binding partner having the desired properties is identified.
- the invention herein utilises a systematic analysis of a polypeptide or polypeptide fragment according to the invention to determine the residues in the polypeptide or fragment that are involved in the interaction with a hyaluronidase substrate (i.e., hyaluronic acid).
- a hyaluronidase substrate i.e., hyaluronic acid
- Such analysis is conveniently performed using recombinant DNA technology.
- a DNA sequence encoding the polypeptide or fragment is cloned and manipulated so that it may be expressed in a convenient host.
- DNA encoding the polypeptide or fragment can be obtained from a genomic library, from cDNA derived from mRNA in cells expressing the said polypeptide or fragment, or by synthetically constructing the DNA sequence (Sambrook et al., supra; Ausubel et al., supra).
- the wild-type DNA encoding the polypeptide or fragment is then inserted into an appropriate plasmid or vector as described herein.
- prokaryotes are preferred for cloning and expressing DNA sequences to produce variants of the polypeptide or fragment.
- E. coli K12 strain 294 ATCC No. 31446
- E. coli B E. coli X1776
- E. coli c600 and c600hfl ATCC No.
- bacilli such as Bacillus subtilis
- Enterobacteriaceae such as Salmonella typhimurium or Serratia marcescens
- various Pseudomonas species bacilli such as Bacillus subtilis
- Bacillus subtilis and other Enterobacteriaceae such as Salmonella typhimurium or Serratia marcescens
- a preferred prokaryote is E. coli W3110 (ATCC 27325).
- variants When operably linked to an appropriate expression vector, variants are obtained. In some cases, recovery of the variant may be facilitated by expressing and secreting such molecules from the expression host by use of an appropriate signal sequence operably linked to the DNA sequence encoding the variant.
- an appropriate signal sequence operably linked to the DNA sequence encoding the variant.
- Such methods are well known to those skilled in the art. Of course, other methods may be employed to produce such polypeptides or fragments such as the in vitro chemical synthesis of the desired polypeptide variant (Barany et al. In The Peptides, eds. E. Gross and J. Meienhofer (Academic Press: N.Y. 1979), Vol. 2, pp. 3-254).
- the different variants are produced, they are contacted with an antigen-binding molecule that binds a polypeptide according to any one of SEQ ID NO: 2, 4 or 8 or immuno-interactive fragment thereof and the interaction, if any, between the antigen-binding molecule and each variant is determined.
- These activities are compared to the activity of the wild-type polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment with the same antigen-binding molecule to determine which of the amino acid residues in the active domain or epitope are involved in the interaction with the antigen-binding molecule.
- the scanning amino acid used in such an analysis may be any different amino acid from that substituted, i.e., any of the 19 other naturally occurring amino acids.
- the interaction between the antigen-binding molecule and parent and variant can be measured by any convenient assay as for example described herein. While any number of analytical measurements may be used to compare activities, a convenient one for binding of antigen-binding molecule is the dissociation constant K d of the complex formed between the variant and antigen-binding molecule as compared to the K d for the wild-type immuno-interactive fragment. Generally, a two-fold increase or decrease in K d per analogous residue substituted by the substitution indicates that the substituted residue(s) is active in the interaction of the wild-type polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment with the target antigen-binding molecule.
- the amino acid residues immediately adjacent thereto should be scanned.
- Three residue-substituted polypeptides can be made.
- the two others contain the scanning amino acid at position N+1 and N ⁇ 1. If each substituted polypeptide or fragment causes a greater than about two-fold effect on the rate of cumulus dispersal of an oocyte-cumulus complex, the scanning amino acid is substituted at position N+2 and N—2.
- the active amino acid residue identified by amino acid scan is typically one that contacts the receptor target (antigen-binding molecule) directly.
- active amino acids may also indirectly contact the target through salt bridges formed with other residues or small molecules such as H 2 O or ionic species such as Na + , Ca +2 , Mg +2 , or Zn +2.
- the substitution of a scanning amino acid at one or more residues results in a residue-substituted polypeptide which is not expressed at levels that allow for the isolation of quantities sufficient to carry out analysis of its activity with the receptor.
- a different scanning amino acid preferably an isosteric amino acid, can be used.
- amino acids are relatively small, neutral amino acids.
- amino acids include alanine, glycine, serine, and cysteine.
- Alanine is the preferred scanning amino acid among this group because it eliminates the side-chain beyond the beta-carbon and is less likely to alter the main-chain conformation of the variant. Alanine is also preferred because it is the most common amino acid. Further, it is frequently found in both buried and exposed positions (Creighton, The Proteins, W. H. Freeman & Co., N.Y.; Chothia, 1976 , J. Mol. Biol., 150: 1). If alanine substitution does not yield adequate amounts of variant, an isosteric amino acid can be used. Alternatively, the following amino acids in decreasing order of preference may be used: Ser, Asn, and Leu.
- isosteric amino acids may be substituted. Such isosteric substitutions need not occur in all instances and may be performed before any active amino acid is identified. Such isosteric amino acid substitution is performed to minimise the potential disruptive effects on conformation that some substitutions can cause.
- Isosteric amino acids are shown in the table below: TABLE B Polypeptide Amino Acid Isosteric Scanning Amino Acid Ala (A) Ser, Gly Glu (E) Gln, Asp Gln (Q) Asn, Glu Asp (D) Asn, Glu Asn (N) Ala, Asp Leu (L) Met, Ile Gly (G) Pro, Ala Lys (K) Met, Arg Ser (S) Thr, Ala Val (V) Ile, Thr Arg (R) Lys, Met, Asn Thr (T) Ser, Val Pro (P) Gly Ile (I) Met, Leu, Val Met (M) Ile, Leu Phe (F) Tyr Tyr (Y) Phe Cys (C) Ser, Ala Trp (W) Phe His (H) Asn, Gln
- the method herein can be used to detect active amino acid residues within different epitopes of a polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment according to the invention. Once this identification is made, various modifications to the wild-type polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment may be made to modify the interaction between the parent polypeptide/immuno-interactive fragment and one or more of the targets.
- the identification of variants can also be facilitated through the use of a phage (or phagemid) display protein ligand screening system as for example described by Lowman, et al. (1991 , Biochem. 30:10832-10838), Markland, et al. (1991 , Gene 109:13-19), Roberts, et al. (1992 , Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.) 89:2429-2433), Smith, G. P. (1985 , Science 228:1315-1317), Smith, et al. (1990 , Science 248:1126-1128) and Lardner et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 5,223,409).
- this method involves expressing a fusion protein in which the desired protein ligand is filsed to the N-terminus of a viral coat protein (such as the M13 Gene III coat protein, or a lambda coat protein).
- a library of phage is engineered to display novel peptides within the phage coat protein sequences.
- Novel peptide sequences are generated by random mutagenesis of gene fragments encoding an immuno-interactive polypeptide fragment using error-prone PCR, or by in vivo mutation by E. coli mutator cells.
- the novel peptides displayed on the surface of the phage are placed in contact, with an antigen binding molecule such as an antibody or antibody fragment against the particular immuno-interactive fragment on which the novel peptide sequences are based.
- Phage that display coat protein having peptides that are capable of binding to such antibodies are immobilised by such treatment, whereas all other phage can be washed away. After the removal of unbound phage, the bound phage can be amplified, and the DNA encoding their coat proteins can be sequenced. In this manner, the amino acid sequence of the embedded peptide or polypeptide can be deduced.
- the method involves (a) constructing a replicable expression vector comprising a first gene encoding a polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment of the invention, a second gene encoding at least a portion of a natural or wild-type phage coat protein wherein the first and second genes are heterologous, and a transcription regulatory element operably linked to the first and second genes, thereby forming a gene fusion encoding a fusion protein; (b) mutating the vector at one or more selected positions within the first gene thereby forming a family of related plasmids; (c) transforming suitable host cells with the plasmids; (d) infecting the transformed host cells with a helper phage having a gene encoding the phage coat protein; (e) culturing the transformed infected host cells under conditions suitable for forming recombinant phagemid particles containing at least a portion of the plasmid and capable of transforming the host, the conditions adjusted so that no
- the plasmid is under tight control of the transcription regulatory element, and the culturing conditions are adjusted so that the amount or number of phagemid particles displaying more than one copy of the fusion protein on the surface of the particle is less than about 1%. Also, preferably, the amount of phagemid particles displaying more than one copy of the fusion protein is less than 10% of the amount of phagemid particles displaying a single copy of the fusion protein. Most preferably, the amount is less than 20%.
- the expression vector will further contain a secretory signal sequence fused to the DNA encoding each subunit of the polypeptide and the transcription regulatory element will be a promoter system.
- Preferred promoter systems are selected from lac Z, ⁇ PL , tac, T7 polymerase, tryptophan, and alkaline phosphatase promoters and combinations thereof.
- the method will employ a helper phage selected from M13K07, M13R408, M13-VCS, and Phi X 174.
- the preferred helper phage is M13K07, and the preferred coat protein is the M13 Phage gene III coat protein.
- the preferred host is E. coli , and protease-deficient strains of E. coli.
- amino acid residues that form the binding domain of the polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment may not be sequentially linked and may reside on different subunits of the polypeptide. That is, the binding domain tracks with the particular secondary structure at the binding site and not the primary structure.
- mutations will be introduced into codons encoding amino acids within a particular secondary structure at sites directed away from the interior of the polypeptide so that they will have the potential to interact with the antigen-binding molecule.
- the phagemid-display method herein contemplates fusing a polynucleotide encoding the polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment (polynucleotide 1) to a second polynucleotide (polynucleotide 2) such that a fusion protein is generated during transcription.
- Polynucleotide 2 is typically a coat protein gene of a phage, and preferably it is the phage M13 gene III coat protein, or a fragment thereof.
- Fusion of polynucleotides 1 and 2 may be accomplished by inserting polynucleotide 2 into a particular site on a plasmid that contains polynucleotide 1, or by inserting polynucleotide 1 into a particular site on a plasmid that contains polynucleotide 2.
- DNA encoding a termination codon may be inserted, such termination codons being UAG (amber), UAA (ocher), and UGA (opel) (see for example, Davis et al., Microbiology (Harper and Row: New York, 1980), pages 237, 245-247, and 274).
- the termination codon expressed in a wild-type host cell results in the synthesis of the polynucleotide 1 protein product without the polynucleotide 2 protein attached.
- growth in a suppressor host cell results in the synthesis of detectable quantities of fused protein.
- Such suppressor host cells contain a tRNA modified to insert an amino acid in the termination codon position of the mRNA, thereby resulting in production of detectable amounts of the fusion protein.
- Such suppressor host cells are well known and described, such as E. coli suppressor strain (Bullock et al., 1987, BioTechniques, 5: 376-379). Any acceptable method may be used to place such a termination codon into the mRNA encoding the fusion polypeptide.
- the suppressible codon may be inserted between the polynucleotide encoding the immuno-interactive fragment and a second polynucleotide encoding at least a portion of a phage coat protein.
- the suppressible termination codon may be inserted adjacent to the fusion site by replacing the last amino acid triplet in the polypeptide or the first amino acid in the phage coat protein.
- the polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment is synthesised substantially without fusion to the phage coat protein due to termination at the inserted suppressible triplet encoding UAG, UAA, or UGA.
- the polypeptide is synthesised and secreted from the host cell due to the absence of the fused phage coat protein which otherwise anchored it to the host cell.
- the polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment may be altered at one or more selected codons.
- An alteration is defined as a substitution, deletion, or insertion of one or more codons in the gene encoding the polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment that results in a change in the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment as compared with the unaltered or native sequence of the said polypeptide or fragment.
- the alterations will be by substitution of at least one amino acid with any other amino acid in one or more regions of the molecule.
- the alterations may be produced by a variety of methods known in the art. These methods include, but are not limited to, oligonucleotide-mediated mutagenesis and cassette mutagenesis as described fro example herein.
- the antigen-binding molecule is attached to a suitable matrix such as agarose beads, acrylamide beads, glass beads, cellulose, various acrylic copolymers, hydroxyalkyl methacrylate gels, polyacrylic acid, polymethacrylic copolymers, nylon, neutral and ionic carriers, and the like. Attachment of the antigen-binding molecule to the matrix may be accomplished by methods described in Methods Enzymol., 44: (1976), or by other means known in the art.
- the immobilised target is contacted with the library of phagemid particles under conditions suitable for binding of at least a portion of the phagemid particles with the immobilised target.
- the conditions including pH, ionic strength, temperature, and the like will mimic physiological conditions.
- Binders Bound phagemid particles (“binders”) having high affinity for the immobilised receptor are separated from those having a low affinity (and thus do not bind to the target) by washing. Binders may be dissociated from the immobilised target by a variety of methods. These methods include competitive dissociation using the wild-type ligand, altering pH and/or ionic strength, and methods known in the art.
- Suitable host cells are infected with the binders and helper phage, and the host cells are cultured under conditions suitable for amplification of the phagemid particles. The phagemid particles are then collected and the selection process is repeated one or more times until binders having the desired affinity for the target molecule are selected.
- Variants of naturally occurring polypeptides or immuno-interactive fragments according to the invention may also be obtained using the principles of conventional or of rational drug design as for example described by Andrews, et al. (In: “PROCEEDINGS OF THE ALFRED BENZON SYMPOSIUM”, volume 28, pp. 145-165, Munksgaard, Copenhagen, 1990), McPherson, A. (1990 , Eur. J. Biochem. 189:1-24), Hol, et al. (In: “MOLECULAR RECOGNITION: CHEMICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL PROBLEMS”, Roberts, S. M. (ed.); Royal Society of Chemistry; pp. 84-93, 1989), Hol, W. G. J. (1989 , Arzneim-Forsch. 39:1016-1018), Hol, W. G. J. (1986 , Agnew Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 25:767-778).

- the capacity of a particular polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment to undergo conformational “breathing” is exploited.
- Knowledge of the 3-dimensional structure of the polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment facilitates such an evaluation.
- An evaluation of the natural conformational changes of an polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment facilitates the recognition of potential hinge sites, potential sites at which hydrogen bonding, ionic bonds or van der Waals bonds might form or might be eliminated due to the breathing of the molecule, etc. Such recognition permits the identification of the additional conformations that the polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment could assume, and enables the rational design and production of immunomimetics that share such conformations.
- the preferred method for performing rational immunomimetic design employs a computer system capable of forming a representation of the three-dimensional structure of the polypeptide or immuno-interactive fragment (such as those obtained using RIBBON (Priestle, J., 1988 , J. Mol. Graphics 21:572), QUANTA (Polygen), InSite (Biosyn), or Nanovision (American Chemical Society)).

- the invention further provides a polynucleotide that encodes a polypeptide, fragment, variant or derivative as defined above.
- the polynucleotide comprises the entire sequence of nucleotides set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1.
- SEQ ID NO: 1 corresponds to an 1810 bp DNA sequence obtained by PCR amplification as will be more fully described hereinafter. This sequence defines: (1) a 5′ untranslated region from nucleotide 1 through nucleotide 480 of SEQ ID NO: 1; (2) an open reading frame from nucleotide 481 through nucleotide 1602; and (3) a 3′ untranslated region from nucleotide 1603 through nucleotide 1810.
- the aforementioned open reading frame encodes a precursor polypeptide comprising a leader peptide encoded by nucleotides 481 through 540, and a mature polypeptide encoded by nucleotides 541 through 1602.
- the polynucleotide comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 3.
- SEQ ID NO: 3 defines the aforementioned open reading frame and thus encodes the said precursor polypeptide.
- the polynucleotide comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 7, which corresponds to nucleotide 541 through nucleotide 1602 and thus encodes the said mature polypeptide.
- SEQ ID NO: 5 corresponds to nucleotide 481 through 540 of SEQ ID NO: 1 and thus encodes the leader polypeptide of the aforementioned precursor polypeptide.

What constitutes suitable variants may be determined by conventional techniques.
- a polynucleotide according to any one of SEQ ID NO: 1, 3, 5 or 7 can be mutated using random mutagenesis (e.g., transposon mutagenesis), oligonucleotide-mediated (or site-directed) mutagenesis, PCR mutagenesis and cassette mutagenesis of an earlier prepared variant or non-variant version of an isolated natural promoter according to the invention.
- random mutagenesis e.g., transposon mutagenesis
- oligonucleotide-mediated (or site-directed) mutagenesis e.g., oligonucleotide-mediated (or site-directed) mutagenesis
- PCR mutagenesis e.g., PCR mutagenesis
- cassette mutagenesis e.g., cassette mutagenesis of an earlier prepared variant or non-variant version of an isolated natural promoter according to the invention.
- Oligonucleotide-mediated mutagenesis is a preferred method for preparing nucleotide substitution variants of a polynucleotide of the invention.
- This technique is well known in the art as, for example, described by Adelman et al. (1983 , DNA 2:183). Briefly, a polynucleotide according to any one of SEQ ID NO: 1, 3, 5 or 7 is altered by hybridising an oligonucleotide encoding the desired mutation to a template DNA, wherein the template is the single-stranded form of a plasmid or bacteriophage containing the unaltered or parent DNA sequence. After hybridisation, a DNA polymerase is used to synthesise an entire second complementary strand of the template that will thus incorporate the oligonucleotide primer, and will code for the selected alteration in said parent DNA sequence.
- oligonucleotides of at least 25 nucleotides in length are used.
- An optimal oligonucleotide will have 12 to 15 nucleotides that are completely complementary to the template on either side of the nucleotide(s) coding for the mutation. This ensures that the oligonucleotide will hybridise properly to the single-stranded DNA template molecule.
- the DNA template can be generated by those vectors that are either derived from bacteriophage M13 vectors, or those vectors that contain a single-stranded phage origin of replication as described by Viera et al. (1987 , Methods Enzymol. 153:3).
- the DNA that is to be mutated may be inserted into one of the vectors to generate single-stranded template. Production of single-stranded template is described, for example, in Sections 4.21-4.41 of Sambrook et al. (1989, supra).
- the single-stranded template may be generated by denaturing double-stranded plasmid (or other DNA) using standard techniques.
- the oligonucleotide is hybridised to the single-stranded template under suitable hybridisation conditions.
- a DNA polymerising enzyme usually the Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase 1
- Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase 1 is then added to synthesise the complementary strand of the template using the oligonucleotide as a primer for synthesis.
- a heteroduplex molecule is thus formed such that one strand of DNA encodes the mutated form of the polypeptide or fragment under test, and the other strand (the original template) encodes the native unaltered sequence of the polypeptide or fragment under test.
- This heteroduplex molecule is then transformed into a suitable host cell, usually a prokaryote such as E. coli .
- the cells are grown, they are plated onto agarose plates and screened using the oligonucleotide primer having a detectable label to identify the bacterial colonies having the mutated DNA.
- the resultant mutated DNA fragments are then cloned into suitable expression hosts such as E. coli using conventional technology and clones that retain the desired antigenic activity are detected. Where the clones have been derived using random mutagenesis techniques, positive clones would have to be sequenced in order to detect the mutation.
- linker-scanning mutagenesis of DNA may be used to introduce clusters of point mutations throughout a sequence of interest that has been cloned into a plasmid vector.
- a plasmid vector For example, reference may be made to Ausubel et al., supra, (in particular, Chapter 8.4) which describes a first protocol that uses complementary oligonucleotides and requires a unique restriction site adjacent to the region that is to be mutagenised. A nested series of deletion mutations is first generated in the region. A pair of complementary oligonucleotides is synthesised to fill in the gap in the sequence of interest between the linker at the deletion endpoint and the nearby restriction site.
- the linker sequence actually provides the desired clusters of point mutations as it is moved or “scanned” across the region by its position at the varied endpoints of the deletion mutation series.
- An alternate protocol is also described by Ausubel et al., supra, which makes use of site directed mutagenesis procedures to introduce small clusters of point mutations throughout the target region. Briefly, mutations are introduced into a sequence by annealing a synthetic oligonucleotide containing one or more mismatches to the sequence of interest cloned into a single-stranded M13 vector. This template is grown in an E. coli dut ⁇ ung ⁇ strain, which allows the incorporation of uracil into the template strand.
- the oligonucleotide is annealed to the template and extended with T4 DNA polymerase to create a double-stranded heteroduplex. Finally, the heteroduplex is introduced into a wild-type E. coli strain, which will prevent replication of the template strand due to the presence of apurinic sites (generated where uracil is incorporated), thereby resulting in plaques containing only mutated DNA.
- Region-specific mutagenesis and directed mutagenesis using PCR may also be employed to construct polynucleotide variants according to the invention.
- reference may be made, for example, to Ausubel et al., supra, in particular Chapters 8.2A and 8.5.
- polynucleotide sequence variants of the invention may be prepared according to the following procedure:
- primers which are optionally degenerate wherein each comprises a portion of a reference polynucleotide encoding a reference polypeptide or fragment of the invention, preferably encoding the sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NO: 2, 4 or 8;
- nucleic acid extract from a bacterial species, which is preferably of a genus selected from the group consisting of Aeromonas, Vibrio and Edwardsiella; and
- Suitable nucleic acid amplification techniques are well known to the skilled addressee, and include polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as for example described in Ausubel et al. (supra); strand displacement amplification (SDA) as for example described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,422,252; rolling circle replication (RCR) as for example described in Liu et al., (1996 , J. Am. Chem. Soc.

- polynucleotide variants that are substantially complementary to a reference polynucleotide are identified by blotting techniques that include a step whereby nucleic acids are immobilised on a matrix (preferably a synthetic membrane such as nitrocellulose), followed by a hybridisation step, and a detection step.
- Southern blotting is used to identify a complementary DNA sequence
- northern blotting is used to identify a complementary RNA sequence.
- Dot blotting and slot blotting can be used to identify complementary DNA/DNA, DNA/RNA or RNA/RNA polynucleotide sequences.
- Such techniques are well known by those skilled in the art, and have been described in Ausubel et al. (1994-1998, supra) at pages 2.9.1 through 2.9.20.
- Southern blotting involves separating DNA molecules according to size by gel electrophoresis, transferring the size-separated DNA to a synthetic membrane, and hybridising the membrane-bound DNA to a complementary nucleotide sequence labelled radioactively, enzymatically or fluorochromatically.
- DNA samples are directly applied to a synthetic membrane prior to hybridisation as above.
- polynucleotides are blotted/transferred to a synthetic membrane, as described above.
- a reference polynucleotide such as a polynucleotide of the invention is labelled as described above, and the ability of this labelled polynucleotide to hybridise with an immobilised polynucleotide is analysed.
- radioactively labelled polynucleotide sequence should typically be greater than or equal to about 108 dpm/mg to provide a detectable signal.
- a radiolabelled nucleotide sequence of specific activity 108 to 109 dpm/mg can detect approximately 0.5 pg of DNA. It is well known in the art that sufficient DNA must be immobilised on the membrane to permit detection. It is desirable to have excess immobilised DNA, usually 10 g. Adding an inert polymer such as 10% (w/v) dextran sulfate (MW 500,000) or polyethylene glycol 6000 during hybridisation can also increase the sensitivity of hybridisation (see Ausubel supra at 2.10.10).

- sFv single chain Fv fragments
- scFv single chain Fv fragments
- ScFv lack all constant parts of whole antibodies and are not able to activate complement.
- Suitable peptide linkers for joining the V H and V L domains are those which allow the V H and V L domains to fold into a single polypeptide chain having an antigen binding site with a three dimensional structure similar to that of the antigen binding site of a whole antibody from which the Fv fragment is derived.
- Linkers having the desired properties may be obtained by the method disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,946,778. However, in some cases a linker is absent.
- ScFvs may be prepared, for example, in accordance with methods outlined in Kreber et al (Krebber et al. 1997, J Immunol. Methods; 201(1): 35-55). Alternatively, they may be prepared by methods described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,091,513, European Patent No 239,400 or the articles by Winter and Milstein (1991 , Nature 349:293) and Plückthun et al (1996 , In Antibody engineering: A practical approach. 203-252).

USA, 92: 652-6556) which discloses a four-helix bundle protein cytochrome b562 having two loops randomised to create complementarity determining regions (CDRs), which have been selected for antigen binding.
- the antigen-binding molecule may be multivalent (i.e., having more than one antigen binding site). Such multivalent molecules may be specific for one or more antigens. Multivalent molecules of this type may be prepared by dimerisation of two antibody fragments through a cysteinyl-containing peptide as, for example disclosed by (Adams et al., 1993, Cancer Res. 53: 4026-4034; Cumber et al., 1992, J. Immunol. 149: 120-126). Alternatively, dimerisation may be facilitated by fusion of the antibody fragments to amphiphilic helices that naturally dimerise (Pack P. Pl ⁇ nckthun, 1992 , Biochem.
- the multivalent molecule may comprise a multivalent single chain antibody (multi-scFv) comprising at least two scFvs linked together by a peptide linker.

These include both single-site and two-site assays of the non-competitive types, as well as the traditional competitive binding assays. These assays also include direct binding of a labelled antigen-binding molecule to a target antigen.

- another antigen-binding molecule suitably a second antibody specific to the antigen, labelled with a reporter molecule capable of producing a detectable signal is then added and incubated, allowing time sufficient for the formation of another complex of antibody-antigen-labelled antibody.
- the sample is one that might contain an antigen including serum, whole blood, and plasma or lymph fluid.
- the sample is, therefore, generally a circulatory sample comprising circulatory fluid.
- a first antibody having specificity for the antigen or antigenic parts thereof is either covalently or passively bound to a solid surface.

- the binding processes are well known in the art and generally consist of cross-linking covalently binding or physically adsorbing, the polymer-antibody complex is washed in preparation for the test sample.
- an aliquot of the sample to be tested is then added to the solid phase complex and incubated for a period of time sufficient and under suitable conditions to allow binding of any antigen present to the antibody.
- the antigen-antibody complex is washed and dried and incubated with a second antibody specific for a portion of the antigen.
- the second antibody has generally a reporter molecule associated therewith that is used to indicate the binding of the second antibody to the antigen.
- the amount of labelled antibody that binds, as determined by the associated reporter molecule is proportional to the amount of antigen bound to the immobilised first antibody.
- An alternative method involves immobilising the antigen in the biological sample and then exposing the immobilised antigen to specific antibody that may or may not be labelled with a reporter molecule. Depending on the amount of target and the strength of the reporter molecule signal, a bound antigen may be detectable by direct labelling with the antibody. Alternatively, a second labelled antibody, specific to the first antibody is exposed to the target-first antibody complex to form a target-first antibody-second antibody tertiary complex. The complex is detected by the signal emitted by the reporter molecule.
- the reporter molecule associated with the antigen-binding molecule may include the following:

- an enzyme is conjugated to the second antibody, generally by means of glutaraldehyde or periodate.
- the substrates to be used with the specific enzymes are generally chosen for the production of, upon hydrolysis by the corresponding enzyme, a detectable colour change. Examples of suitable enzymes include those described supra. It is also possible to employ fluorogenic substrates, which yield a fluorescent product rather than the chromogenic substrates noted above. In all cases, the enzyme-labelled antibody is added to the first antibody-antigen complex. It is then allowed to bind, and excess reagent is washed away.
- a solution containing the appropriate substrate is then added to the complex of antibody-antigen-antibody.
- the substrate will react with the enzyme linked to the second antibody, giving a qualitative visual signal, which may be further quantitated, usually spectrophotometrically, to give an indication of the amount of antigen which was present in the sample.
- fluorescent compounds such as fluorescein, rhodamine and the lanthamide, europium (EU) may be chemically coupled to antibodies without altering their binding capacity.
- the fluorochrome-labelled antibody When activated by illumination with light of a particular wavelength, the fluorochrome-labelled antibody adsorbs the light energy, inducing a state to excitability in the molecule, followed by emission of the light at a characteristic colour visually detectable with a light microscope.
- the fluorescent-labelled antibody is allowed to bind to the first antibody-antigen complex. After washing off the unbound reagent, the remaining tertiary complex is then exposed to light of an appropriate wavelength. The fluorescence observed indicates the presence of the antigen of interest.

- A. hydrophila PPD 134/91 was obtained from the Primary Production department, Singapore. It was routinely cultured in tryptic soy broth (TSB, Difco, USA) or on tryptic soy agar (TSA) at 25° C. Escherichia coli JM 109 (Promega, USA) was used as the host for recombinant plasmids during cloning, sub-cloning and sequencing studies. E. coli XL1-Blue MRF′ (Stratagene, La Jolla, Calif., USA) was used as the host for XZAP Express phage. E.
- Plasmid pGEM-T Promega, USA
- Phage ZAP Express and XZAP II was used to construct genomic DNA libraries.
- Plasmid pQE-30 (QIAGEN, USA) was used as the expression vector in E. coli.
- E. coli bacteria were grown in Luria-Bertani (LB) broth (DIFCO, USA) or on LB agar at 37° C. When required, the medium was supplemented with 100 ⁇ g mL ⁇ 1 ampicillin and/or kanamycin (15 ⁇ g mL ⁇ 1 ).
- Degenerate primers P1 and P2 (shown in FIG. 1, panel A) were designed on the basis of the N-terminal 20-amino acid sequence of the 43-kDa protein and were used for PCR amplification in a reaction containing 5 units Taq DNA polymerase, 1.25 mM of each dNTP, 1 pmol of each primer, and 100 ng template DNA, in a total volume of 50 ⁇ L.
- A. hydrophila PPD 134/91 chromosomal DNA was used as a template DNA after partially digestion by Sau3AI as described above. PCR products were electrophoresed on a 3% agarose gel and a 59 bp DNA band was purified.
- Purified DNA was ligated to the plasmid pGEM-TTM vector and then introduced into competent E. coli JM 109 cells according to the manufacturer's instruction (Promega, USA).
- the resultant plasmid (pTI) was sequenced and the nucleotide sequence information was used to design a specific sense primer SP3 as shown in FIG. 1 in a 3′ nested RACE PCR using genomic library 1 as template (1 ⁇ L of the amplified phage).
- a 650 bp DNA fragment was cloned (pT21) and its nucleotide sequence determined. This analysis revealed a gene encoding the N-terminal amino acid sequence.
- DNA sequencing was performed using Big Dye Terminator Cycle Sequencing Ready Reaction kit and protocol developed by Applied Biosystems (Perkin-Elmer Corp., Foster City. Calif., USA).
- the labelled extension products were analysed on a model 373A DNA sequencer (Applied Biosystems).
- the nucleotide (nt) and deduced amino acid (aa) sequences were analysed using DNASIS programs.
- N-terminal amino acid sequence disclosed in Lee, et al. (1997, supra) was used to design two degenerate primers P1 and P2 for PCR reaction (FIG. 1, panel A). After PCR using these degenerate primers, one 59 bp dominant DNA fragments was sub-cloned (plasmid pTI) and sequenced. The aa sequence deduced from this 59 bp fragment corresponded to the N-terminal sequence of the known 43 kDa protein. A specific sense primer SP3 was constructed according to the central region of this 59 bp fragment and used for 3′ nested RACE PCR using genomic library 1 as template. Agarose gel electrophoresis of the PCR products revealed several bands.
- a 650 bp fragment was selected, sub-cloned (plasmid pT21) and sequenced. This fragment was confirmed as part of the 43-kDa protein gene by comparing a part of 21 nt sequence corresponding to the 7 C-terminal amino acids of the known N-terminal aa sequence.
- primers generated from the 650 bp partial adhesin gene clone were used in 5′RACE and 3′RACE nested PCR reactions to isolate the full-length major adhesin gene from the genomic libraries.
- the anti-sense primers are: FASI: 5′-GGT CGG TTC CAG CAC GTC AT-3′ and FAS3: 5′-ACC TAC GTC GCC CCA CTC GTT GAA G-3′ for 5′RACE; and sense primer primers: FS20: 5′-AGC TGC TAC CGA TGG TTC CTG GGG-3′ and FS21: 5′-AAA CTC CGC CAA CAA GTT CG-3′ for 3′RACE.
- a 1.1 kb 3′RACE PCR product was confirmed to encode the 3′ end of the ahma gene (pT30).
- a 900 bp 5′RACE PCR product was also confirmed to encode the 5′ end of the ahma gene (pT27, FIG. 1, panel B).
- the two overlapping partial clones comprised a 1790 bp DNA which contains the full-length A. hydrophila major adhesin coding region of 1119 bp (FIG. 2) encoding a putative precursor protein of 373 amino acids containing a putative 20 amino acid signal peptide and a mature major adhesin protein, which is predicted to comprise 353 amino acids (Mr 38.7 kDa).
- the predicted 20 contiguous N-terminal amino acids are identical to those obtained by Edman degradation except that the third amino acid is valine instead of phenylalanine. The inventors suspect that this discrepancy is a result of misreading the Edman degradation results.
- the 1810 bp DNA fragment was cloned by PCR from the chromosomal DNA of A. hydrophila PPD 134/91 and designated as pTAH (FIG. 1, panel B).
- A. hydrophila major adhesin gene ahma was expressed in E. coli using the QIAexpressionistTM system (QIAGEN) according to instructions recommended by the manufacturer. Briefly, two primers were designed according to the N-terminal and C-terminal of the sequence corresponding to the mature protein and containing BamHI or HindIII restriction enzyme digestion sites: FPQE1: 5′-GCG CGC GGA TCC GCA GTG GTT TAC GAC-3′ and FPQE2: 5′-GCG CGC AAG CTT AGA AGT TGT ATT GCA-3′. These two primers were used for PCR using plasmid pTAH as template.
- the resulting DNA fragment was recovered from agarose gel by gel purification method.
- the purified DNA fragment was double-digested by BamHI and HindIII and the resulting fragment was re-purified from the agarose gel.
- the digested DNA fragment was ligated to the BamHI and HindIII-digested pQE-30 vector and transformed into E. coli M15.
- the resulting construct was designated as pQE-ahma. Its sequence was confirmed again by DNA sequencing.
- the bacteria were resuspended in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.4), and 10 ⁇ L of cell suspension was boiled in SDS-sample buffer for 5 min and analysed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). As shown in FIG. 3, the expression of recombinant protein can be induced after addition of IPTG (lane 3).
- the ahma recombinant protein was purified by 6 ⁇ His affinity chromatography using Ni-NTA agarose provided in the QIAexpressionist Kit (QIAGEN, USA).
- lysis buffer 8M Urea, 100 mM NaH 2 PO 4 , 10 mM Tri-HCl, pH 8.0.
- the tube was immersed in ice and the cells were lysed using a sonicator with a 5-mm-diameter probe for 6 ⁇ 30 sec.
- the lysate was centrifuged at 14,000 ⁇ g at 4° C. for 20 min.
- the supernatant was incubated with 2.5 mL of 50% Ni-NTA SuperflowTM slurry and mixed gently by shaking at 200 rpm at room temperature for 30 min.
- the mixture was carefully loaded into an empty column and washed twice with 20 mL of wash buffer (8M Urea, 100 mM NaH 2 PO 4 , 10 mM Tri-HCl, pH 6.3).
- the recombinant protein was eluted with 4 ⁇ 1 mL elution buffer D (8M Urea, 100 mM NaH 2 PO 4 , 10 mM Tri-HCl, pH 5.9), followed by 4 ⁇ 1 mL of buffer E (8M Urea, 100 mM NaH 2 PO 4 , 10 mM Tri-HCl, pH 4.5).
- the different eluate fractions were analysed by SDS-PAGE.
- the fractions containing the protein of interest were pooled together and dialysed against buffer F (1 M Urca, 100 mM NaH 2 PO 4 , 10 mM Tri-HCl, pH 7.4), followed by PBS (pH 7.4). SDS-PAGE of the pooled fractions that the purified recombinant protein migrated as a single band of about 43-kDa (FIG. 3, lane 4).
- the recombinant adhesin was used to immunise rabbits to obtain anti-recombinant adhesin antisera.
- Western Blot the whole-cell lysates of different strains of Aeromonas, Vibrio and Edwardsiella were boiled in SDS sample buffer for 5 min, and analysed by electrophoresis using a SDS-polyacrylamide gel. The resolved protein was electroblotted onto a 0.2 ⁇ m nitrocellulose filter.
- the filter was blocked in 5% skimmed milk in TTBS (0.1% Tween-20, 10 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.2) at 25° C.
- the rabbit antisera reacted strongly with two protein bands (with apparent molecular weights of about 43-kDa and 62 kDa, respectively), from all strains of Aeromonas tested, with one protein band (with apparent molecular weights of about 30-kDa) from V. anguillarum , and with one protein band (with apparent molecular weights of about 62-kDa) from Edwardsiella tarda .
- these results indicate that this 43-kDa adhesin is conserved across Aeromonas species, and that V. anguillarum and E. tarda express proteins with similar antigenic determinants to those of the adhesin of the present invention.
- the agglutination titre of the antisera obtained from immunised fish was tested against formalin-killed A. hydrophila PPD 134/91 cells.
- the antibody titres against A. hydrophila PPD 134/91 were determined by agglutination tests in 96-well microtitre plates as described by Roberson (Roberson BS. BACTERIAL AGGLUTINATION. IN: TECHNIQUES IN FISH IMMUNOLOGY. Fair Haven, SOS Publications, 1990, pp. 81-86.).
- Each week, five fish from immune group or control group were sacrificed to obtain their sera for antibody titre determination.
- the antisera can agglutinate the bacterial cells at high concentration.
- naive blue gourami were immunised with the recombinant adhesin and then challenged with virulent strains of A. hydrophila, V. anguillarum and E. tarda .
- healthy blue gourami were immunised with recombinant adhesin as described in “Immunisation of blue gourami with recombinant adhesin”.
- the immune and control fish were challenged with live bacteria. These include A. hydrophila PPD 134/91, PPD 70/91 and L31 ; Vibrio anguillarium 01/10/93(2) and Edwardsiella tarda PPD 130/91.
- a volume of 0.1 mL of the live bacterial suspension was intraperitoneally injected into fish. The mortality of the fish and other morphological changes were observed and recorded over a period of seven days.
